Outraged! This man mooed at me!



Recommended Posts

When this happened to me, I stopped, turned and said...

"You absolutely have to be the most creative person on the face of the earth. I mean, REALLY! That was quite the f'ing stretch to moo at a larger person. If I knew what sound backward, intolerant, assholes made, I'd respond but I guess I'm just not nearly as talented or as smart as you."

Stopped him in his tracks and his buddies howled with laughter.

I don't cry about that sort of thing. I have such a smartass mouth is just engages before anything else can be done. I guess that's my way to keep from crying...cut them off around the knees with my mouth.

I feel your pain, believe me I do. The same thing happened to me at a party 10 years, I was sitting on the front step of the house (my best friend's house), and directly on the other side of the fence some guys started mooing at me, there must have been about 5 of them. I was MORTIFIED, I haven't been so hurt in my life, literally, for some reason it shook me to the core. My friend made a big deal of it with me and said she'd tell them to leave, but really, who wants to put themselves in the spotlight AGAIN once they've been treated that way. I'm feeling nauseous just thinking about it, I'm so sorry you had to go through that. But like it's been said, those ****ers will get theirs in then end, and hey, they probably still live at home with their parents and have teensy weeny little....well you get the point.

I would have said..."Did you say moo or ooh. You know, your boyfriend shouldn't touch you down there and make you say that in public. Get a room."

i would have followed them around the whole store, stating very loudly to everyone i walked by, These insensite assholes just moo'ed at me to mqake themselves feel like they have a bigger penis. i am sure a few employees would notice, and they would either be asked to leave, or they would leave on their own to avoid the crazy lady shouting and drawing attention to them.

I'm so sorry you had to go through that. Some people are real pigs!

I loved Mary's comment about "I'd rather have too much than too little" and looking at their crotch!! But I probably wouldn't have had the nerve. I think Wheetsin is right and totally ignoring them was the bst thingto do. They wanted to see you respond somehow, and you denying them a reaction was the best revenge.

My favorite response I've ever heard to the mooing, and hope I remember this the next time it happens to me:

"Excuse me - did you just moo like a cow?"

"Yep."

"I thought so. You don't look like you have the balls to be a bull."

lol

lol i like that one

when my husband saw this thread he was like...what? people moo or make rude comments to fat people....as if his eyes had just been opened...i was like..um yeah....

my favorite was always the, well I can lose weight but what are you gonna do about ur stupidity thing...

I now have new amo with the I'd rather have more then less comment...that one is great...

I know I should ignore that stuff, but I can't, i totally blasted 2 teenage boys that were at my school making fun of me.......I asked them if they thought what they were saying was funny, and of course they were embarrassed that I had come back, I was still bitching at them when their parents picked them up, and I told their parents....the parents look apphauled...

ohh well whatever, hopefully most of us will never have to hear these kinds of insults EVER again!

:pound: :pound: :pound: :pound: That was a GREAT one!

I hate it when people act like that, it is very childish of them. I have things like that happen to me so many times. One time a guy asked me if I thought I was disabled.... another time someone said look at that B***h she so fat if she doesnt die from that shes smoking haha.... Yeah people can be cruel. but no matter how you ignore them or try to blow it off like nothing, it still hurts.

I've been thinking about this.

While yes, there are some terribly rude and obnoxious people in the world, others are simply ignorant or have poorly developed senses of humor.

Personally, when standing in very long lines, like for movies, I've been known to make varous barnyard animals who get penned. LIke sheep, cattle, or even hogs. And I've gotten some very hostile looks from people while joking with friends when I make my animal noises. Oddly enough sheep/goat and chicken noises don't generate much antagonism, but cows and pigs... whoa, another story altogether!

Wow, there are some good comebacks in this thread! I hope you are feeling a bit better now Poodles!

I've had the 'drive bys' plenty of times, but the worst was a few months ago. I was sitting outside my dentists office waiting for Mike (my fiance) to pick me up. This car pulled up and the kids in the back seat (maybe 8 and 10, maybe younger) started saying nasty things to me (hey you ****in' fat ass, etc), and the woman driving got out and just said "oh just ignore them" and went into a store. The entire 10 or 15 minutes she was in the store, they were yelling at me, saying worse and worse things (things I didn't know about when I was 10). I refused to even look at them. Finally I couldn't take it anymore and just "You guys need help". They left, and Mike showed up and he said "Hey, what's wrong??" and I just started bawling as I told him what happened. He was SO ANGRY!! Honestly, the only think that helped me feel better was to think about their probably futures.

I too hope that I never piss Nykee off. :)

the adult with the kids just said to ignore them???!?!?!?!?! WTF?!?!?! What kind of manners is she teaching the kids??

Ohhhh I would have done a lot more then that to the kids i would have went in the store and VERY LOUDLY told the lady that the children she left ALONE in the car were shouting insults and curse words to people....I would make sure that every one else in the store heard what I was saying to her.... I might shy away when it comes to adults, but as a teacher I have no problem telling off kids or their parents (responsible adult with tme) when they are displaying unacceptable behavior.

Of course you are absolutely right K@t, but I have no courage when it come to confrontation, lol.

:) I hope to work on that.

aww...I don't have much courage when it comes to men i think. I just ignore that, unless I'm in a really pissy mood at the time they decide to mess with me, but kids...i guess thats second nature because I'm a teacher....well don't worry about it, what goes around comes around and one day those kids will get theirs....

      It's been 10 long years! Here is my VSG weight loss surgiversary update..

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.

      Oh yeah, something I wanted to rant about, a billing dispute that cropped up 3 months ago.
      Surgery was in August of 2023. A bill shows up for over $7,000 in January. WTF? I asks myself. I know that I jumped through all of the insurance hoops and verified this and triple checked that, as did the surgeon's office. All was set, and I paid all of the known costs before surgery.
      A looong story short, is that an assistant surgeon that was in the process of accepting money from my insurance company touched me while I was under anesthesia. That is what the bill was for. But hey, guess what? Some federal legislation was enacted last year to help patients out when they cannot consent to being touched by someone out of their insurance network. These types of bills fall under something called, "surprise billing," and you don't have to put up with it.
      https://www.cms.gov/nosurprises
      I had to make a lot of phone calls to both the surgeon's office and the insurance company and explain my rights and what the maximum out of pocket costs were that I could be liable for. Also had to remind them that it isn't my place to be taking care of all of this and that I was going to escalate things if they could not play nice with one another.
      Quick ending is that I don't have to pay that $7,000+. Advocate, advocate, advocate for yourself no matter how long it takes and learn more about this law if you are ever hit with a surprise bill.

      Some days I feel like an infiltrator... I'm participating in society as a "thin" person. They have no idea that I haven't always been one of them! 🤣

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL
